Critical and Systematic Thinking workshop
Participants learned about the problem-solving system, applying critical thinking in real-world settings, evaluating or criticizing material, thinking map analysis, and brainstorming. The program gave insights and practical suggestions that can be implemented in everyday life, particularly for candidates competing in the IDEBATE Season 2 Final Round.
The interactive content has helped the participant understand the concept of thinking out of the box and dealing with problems. Moreover, Dr. Tse gave interesting cases or riddles to get the participants involved in pảticing critical thinking and problem-solving.
As the last training session of IDEBATE season 2, the Critical and Systematic Thinking workshop will hopefully be useful to participants while providing them with the complete experience of competing and learning at the same time. Stay tuned for more helpful workshops in future seasons of IDEBATE!
